What a great day! Aaron and Debi are super helpful. Exact and easy instructions for the quick walk from the cruise ship, tips on what to see, personal phone number if any questions or issues, etc. The kids loved it as the 4 of us drove around to beaches, parks, lunch, and sights. It was the one of the best highlights of the trip.

What an awesome way to spend the day and explore the beautiful island. From booking, picking up the Buggy to drop off the process was seamless. Aaron is very personable and knows all there is to know about the island. He took the time to point us in the right direction using a complementary map where he circled all the amazing points to hit. We rented for 8 hours and I’m glad we did because we used every bit of it. I was just the co-pilot and enjoyed every bit. My pilot loved the buggy and couldn’t help but express how awesome it was w/ a huge smile over and over again. This is hands down the BEST way to explore the island. I recommend ditching at least one tour you may have planned and explore it on your own in the buggy. We went about 65 miles to the east and hit Rainbow Falls, and headed North to Hawaiian Tropical Botanical Gardens and Akaka Falls. We stopped at a restaurant Aaron recommenced which was delicious. We drove through many climates which was awesome to experience. I highly recommend renting, it was a 10/10!!!

Our family rented three of the four available buggies and had an amazing time! Aaron and Debi were very helpful and Debi shared a map with directions and suggestions of places to see. The buggies were clean, fueled and ready to go. We spent a good part of the day driving south down the coast with the amazing view of the landscape and water. The buggies performed without issue and were so much fun. We would highly recommend using Big Island Buggy for future fun and sightseeing.
